The CEO asked the e-commerce FBOs to adopt practices to ensure minimum shelf life of 30 percent or 45 days before expiry at the time of delivery to the consumer.
CEO, FSSAI also cautioned the FBOs against making unsupported claims online. This would prevent misleading information and protect consumers’ right to accurate product details. He highlighted the pivotal role of online platforms in protecting consumer health and promoting transparency. He reiterated the mandate that no FBO can operate on any e-commerce platform without a valid FSSAI license or Registration, emphasizing the critical need for regulatory compliance.
